Vladimir Putin's hypersonic missile carried a simple message to the West over Ukraine: back off, and if you don't, Russia reserves the right to hit U.S. and British military facilities.
-snip-
"Putin is saying to the West stop - halt - back off," Sergei Markov, a former Kremlin adviser, told Reuters.
"The signal Putin is sending to the world is that we consider these strikes as the direct entry of the United States and Britain into a war against Russia," he said. "But we are not responding with all our might right now because these strikes against Russia will not change the outcome of the war."
A Russian source who spoke on condition of anonymity due to the sensitivity of the situation said Putin had hinted that he wanted to steer clear of escalation, though the odds of Russia using nuclear weapons remained pretty high.
The source did not clarify whether he was talking about tactical battlefield weapons or long-range nuclear missiles.

“What if we’re the bully?”
Whose military moved into another country and took their land? Also, what sort of government doesn’t legislate window safety when so many wealthy, connected citizens somehow fall out of sixth floor windows which are unaccountably open in the Russian winter? I’m thinking a country that has so many citizens experiencing bizarre deaths all over the world is probably more Mafia than legitimate. Mafia=bully.
To me it sounds like he is running short of appropriate ammo and so is using the wrong stuff out of desperation and then acting like he wanted to do it.
What’s relevant is that Trump didn’t CONFIRM the call, let alone the claim you made.
The demise of the GloboHomoPedoNazi WEF and American Marxism.
I honestly don’t think he’s bluffing
Putin is the one who needs to back off.
and stop invading his neighbors
I always read your one-liner trolls as hearing a high-pitched whine from a little keyboard biatch troll, marcusspamusallmaximally.
Best check your Special Ukraine Sock - your mum may have moved it while cleaning your room in the basement.
Storm Shadow and ATACMS use NATO satellites for targeting, they’re already involved.
Oh, are you talking about the three North Korean generals that you "killed" a couple of days ago, who all "got better" when it came time to "Bring Out Your Dead"?
You're a lying pustule and propagandist.
We've already established that you're a liar and a troll, marcusspamusallmaximally.
Do we have to go through the dreary evidence once more?
Like the time you killed Evgeniy Poddubnyy?
I have not heard of another Ukrainian missile strike on Russian soil since this one hit.
Have you?
Trump was right again - Russia was working on this type of system — a clear violation of the treaty against them.
Someone tell me how any agreement with Russia is worth the paper it is written on.
Others have done same crap? Then even more so, no agreement between opposing countries really means anything.
Yup. Same analysis I’ve repeatedly posted, only with Europe, history suggests that 50 years is probably on the very long side of the estimate. And then there is China. :-(
Also, I’d say that if Pooty gets even half of what he wants, same result. What despot won’t think he can do better, and that drives everything else.
bkmk
I’ve never heard of this website
Is it fake news?

The problem for you is, burn down the planet (which really is the projection of the future if Russia wins) and you and your descendants will fry too.

Ukraine didn’t have many of the ATACMS and Storm Shadows. They probably have some left, but don’t want to run out unless the situation is really dire. Plus there may be analysis of the new Russian missile going on. If it has to slow to deploy the 36 warheads (seems likely), that could be an Achilles heel. I assume wreckage of any of the main missile that came down in Ukraine is being analyzed.
Big mistake to think that is the only way it can be done for sizeable immobile targets.
Yes, but appeasement is the more likely route to such an end.
